Chris99 at BFL forum is quoting a price of $240 per board which will accept up to 8 chips. I just sent him my sample chips for testing. I think the more BFL clone options we have the better...

This group buy has bee PAUSED.  No chips are available for purchase from this group buy.
Will resume after the board being designed is tested.

I cannot wait to see what we will have Smiley

BFL has sent me sample chips... I have made solid arrangements to provide some to a PCB designer to begin testing.

At some point, it would be interesting to have some upper and lower estimates on delivered circuit board cost.  Clearly that would be highly volume dependent and I'd expect the designers and guys that handle the mft to make a profit.  I used to do this and know how it is.

Cost range would be nice KNOWING it's only a crude guess.
sample boards are getting ordered tomorrow and then assembled with the sample chips for testing...
once testing is completed, we'll have some idea on pricing...

I have requested 70 sample chips already.
Out of curiosity how did you do it? Mail? Do you have any direct phone number? I can't get replay from them even after ordering 200 chips...
I emailed sales

This just in from Josh:

Anthony is not longer with us, which is why the sample chips have languished. I just corrected this problem today and we have a new person on it... he should be getting the sample chips taken care of over the next couple days.

Thats good news.
Josh stated that you can receive 2 chips per 100 order
This way we can have a working unit before we receive the chips and you guys can work out all the details.
I have requested 70 sample chips already.
that's the plan!

Has anyone started any significant work on a BFL chip project?
